This show felt incredibly awkward. The dialog, the art, and the relationships between the characters.

The first and second episodes share nothing in terms of story. The first episode is about human relationships in space when people age differently. It's been done before(and better) but an interesting idea none-the-less. Instead of pursuing that idea to it's fullest they decide to just throw in one of the lamest generic bad guys I've ever seen. It does have an interesting twist, but it doesn't really justify watching the whole thing.

The second episode is about 2 lovers on an another planet that just happen to belong to ... opposing factions. It wants to pose the question of whether it's humans that shape a planet or is it the planet that shapes humans, but it's really just an uninteresting story.

Art: I think the backgrounds were done pretty well, but the characters just didn't look right.

sound: I didn't really have any thoughts about the sound either way

characters: I think they did a really bad job with the characters. The way they interacted felt awkward and I couldn't bring myself to care about any of them.

Nyan Koi isn't an awful show, however it isn't good either and it certainly doesn't deserve rating it has currently which is almost "Very Good". Perhaps it just a form of Stockholm syndrome that some people can't objectively rate something when they've invested so much time to watching it. Or maybe I'm just a jerk who rates things lower than most people.
Anyway...

Story wise there really isn't much. A harem anime with cats as the gimmick(Somewhere along the line they add demon fighting for an episode.). The show claims to be a romantic comedy but it isn't really romantic or funny. The climax ... isn't very interesting and the ending leaves little accomplished in terms of Kousaka's relationships with the girls, and the actual plot of being cursed.

The art and sound didn't stand out to me as being either good or bad.

The characters were bland and I really couldn't have cared less about any of them. Worse they never develop at all throughout the entire series.

Overall it's not the worse show out there, but I definitely would advise against putting it on your plan-to-watch list unless you really have nothing better to do.
